OUR COMMUNITY SOCCER

The Tri-County District promotes soccer, both indoor and outdoor, by organizing and sanctioning leagues and playoffs for the district, promoting referee, player, coach and volunteer development, collecting fees from the community associations to pay expenses and forward player registrations and insurance fees to the Alberta Soccer Association, to distribute information about soccer to the community associations, to provide means for resolving protests and grievances.Tri-County tries to balance the needs of the individual soccer player with the needs of the District and soccer as a whole.
